    Stories and art by Eugene E. Hughes and Sal Trapani. Not a typical 1950s crime comic, Climax featured elaborate mysteries and a regular contest where readers were invited to solve a two-page mystery for $25 in War Bonds. Crooks hire a homeless man to impersonate the missing son of a wealthy old woman. A mysterious talisman gives a wrongly imprisoned man the chance for revenge and a fresh start. Counterfeiters plot to get rid of their engraver, but he's got a contingency plan. Fate!; Practice Makes Perfect!; The Phony!; Evil Eye!; The Artist! 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
